SELF-CONTROL
simple process of practicing
■“ self-control is as benetu-ial as it is
astonishing. In a little while those of
us who succeed in obtaining mastery
of our emotions, our glib tongue, *ur
strutting pride and our iudolence, find
ourselves in a new world.
We wonder at the agreeublene-s of
our friends, the loveliness of the ten­
der blossoms, and the thousands of
beautiful things all about us which
heretofore we have passed without no­
tice.
At last we have succeeded In pull­
ing an old mask from our face ami we
are able to smile. We have in some
ways found a grain of faith—faith in
ourselves and in our intimates.
We are changed and the whole world
is changed with ns.
We soar on the wings of the dove.
We have risen high above the bogs
and quagmires.
We have come from a state between
sleep and w aking. Our vision is clear.
Our mind is alert, appreciative, con­
siderate and kindly disposed
Our
thoughts tly straight to the mark,
never diverted by ill-humor or a vio­
lent rush of hot blood.
In some indescribable manner a bur­
den has slipped from our galled
shoulders, and we are buoyant, happy,
unconquerable.
The ruling forces of the universe
have taken hold of ns, while other
and lower forces are losing ground.
Affection, sentiment and compass* n
have become parts of our disposition.
The control of impulse has grown
perfect through the supremacy of *nr
higher motives.
We are enslaved no more by the
harpies of passion. The simple opera­
tion of self control, the careful and
continuous exertion of will-power has
set ua free.
Where formerly we moved abont
with dour face* we now go with beam
ing smiles where ia other days we
were me« with rebuffs we »re gfsen
cl eery receptions and eacouis^ememr.
The strong, sunny parts of natnre
which we have by supreme effort de­
veloped are ours, and we are keeping
step with the victors, sure of victory
for ourselves in tl>« faith that lllumin
ate* our wav.
